The Texas Rangers added RP Aaron Poreda to the bullpen to ease the workload on RP Pedro Figueroa. Figueroa worked four times in a six-day stretch last week, and he became the 20th pitcher since 1914 to earn his first two wins on consecutive days.

Texas Rangers RP Pedro Figueroa has won a spot in the team's bullpen. He has thrown hard in the past, but had command issues. This spring, he worked seven innings while issuing no walks and striking out six batters. "We always knew he had a big arm," general manager Jon Daniels said Wednesday, March 26. "He's not just a left-on-left guy. He can throw multiple innings."
